Chris sat on top of the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge. Leo had just left him to see what the elders had to say. As he sat there he wondered if he would be able to get their trust back. He had just lost the Charmed ones trust. But he knew he had to get it back. He could send them visions using his magic to show them that what he said was true. To let them know that Wyatt wasn't an angel when he grew up. But then again if he showed them, he would also be showing them who he was and he wasn't sure he wanted that. That plan wouldn't work. He figured he would just have to prove it to them one way or another.
Chris was about to orb away, when he suddenly felt sick to his stomach. His stomach was in unbelievable pain. He didn't know why. He stood up just as a wave of dizziness hit him. Chris started to lose his balance he couldn't get it back. He started to fall. But he couldn't see were he was falling to. His vision was blacked out. He hoped and prayed that he wasn't falling onto the road. He couldn't be sure for while he was trying to regain his balance he had spun around to grab something. He tried to orb but that wasn't working. He continued to fall waiting to land on a car or the pavement, but it never came. He heard the noise of the cars going by him. Then he knew that he was going to be falling into the water. Now he was worried about someone seeing him falling. He would have explaining to do, it he lived through this. After what seemed like eternity Chris could feel a spray from the water hitting hi face just before he crashed head first into the water. That was the last thing he remembered happening before he blacked out completely.
Leo orbed to the bridge to finish his talk with Chris, since their last conversation went unfinished. When he got there was no sign of Chris. He didn't understand, he had told him to wait. Maybe he is with the sisters' Leo thought to himself, as he orbed to the Manor. Piper, Phoebe, and Paige were sitting in the living room talking. Wyatt was in his playpen only a couple of feet away. They weren't expecting to see Leo orb in
"Hey Leo." Phoebe said
"Hey, have you seen Chris?" Leo asked
"No, why would we?" Piper said getting mad at Leo for mentioning Chris' name to her. She was still angry with him for lying all this time.
"Well, I was talking to him about..." Leo started
"I don't want to hear it. He has no right to come back here and he should know that. I don't want to hear that name again." Piper said
"But Piper, He feels bad for lying to you guys. I understand why he did." Leo said
"Then why, Leo, Why?" Piper asked "If he told us before, then we, you, probably wouldn't except his help. He would be able to help if you believed it, but he knew you wouldn't, that we wouldn't."
"I cannot believe you trust him. Now, you are the one that didn't trust him in the first place. Why start now?" Piper said
"Look at all he's done to protect Wyatt, and yourselves. He even risked himself to save Wyatt the last time, with the order."
"Leo, he lied to us the whole time he was here. He wont ask for help even when he needs it, why should we want his help."
"He knows things we cannot. He came here to protect..."
"Wyatt. I know, but he has lied. I cannot trust a man that openly lied to me. How do we know he isn't the evil that turns Wyatt?"
"Yes, I know what you mean, but I think he is in trouble now."
"Why would you say that?" Asked Paige who had been silent through their fight
"I told him to wait for me to come back. He agreed, but when I got there he was gone. I thought maybe he came here, but he isn't here, and I cannot sense him anywhere."
"What do you mean sense him?" Phoebe asked "As an elder I am given part of the earth's witched to watch over. I watch San Francisco; since Chris was here I was watching him too. I can sense his presents at all times. Just like when I could sense when you guys were in trouble. It is so I can get a hold of him when I need to. I cannot sense his presence anymore. It dropped off from all of the elders' sensors."
"What does that mean?" Paige asked
"That means either, someone took him and is masking his magic, or he is died. But he cannot be died yet I didn't feel it."
Phoebe decided to take this chance to ask. "Leo, where were you meeting him?"
"On top of the Golden Gate Bridge."
"Why there?" Phoebe asked
"It is the easiest place to find someone in the city. It is high up and in one direction. It is the den of the city."
"Could he have fallen?" Paige asked
"He might have, but I don't think he could have. He was perfectly fine when I left. Sad but not looking like he was going to jump, or something like that. He didn't look sick. He wasn't hiding from anyone. He was thinking. Anyways he would have orbed if he was falling."
"How can you be so sure?" Piper asked
But before Leo could answer the question. The TV turned on, and was on the one of the news channels.
"How could that happen? The remote is on the TV." Leo said
"I don't know." Phoebe said. "Wait do you think Wyatt did it?" They all looked at Wyatt, who had his back to them playing with some of his blocks.
Piper got up, and turned it off. She sat back down. It turned back on. She got up again and turned it off. This time it turned itself back on when she turned around. "What the heck?" Piper said
"Wait." Leo said
"...Earlier today about a half hour ago, drivers on the Golden Gate Bridge saw a young man falling head first into the Golden Gate Straight. We bring you to the scene now with Robin Brown."
"Thank you Suzanne, I am here on the Golden Gate Bridge, watching as divers keep going down to search for the boy who was reported to have fallen in by over 20 people. Here is one witness. What did you see sir?"
"I was driving home from work at that end of the bridge when I saw him. I didn't see him until he was just above the street level. But he didn't look like he meant to jump. It looked like he trying to float you could say. He was struggling." Said an aged man, with white hair.
"Yea, I come to the bridge to think sometimes. I turned to look up, and I saw someone on one of the wires, the person looked like they had lost their balance and was trying to regain it. But they fell and kept falling. You could say that the guy was struggling. He seemed kind of scared, it looked like when he got past the cars he wasn't as scared, but he hit the water pretty hard." Said a teenage girl. She had red hair and dark eye make-up.
"We now go to the first officer on the scene. Officer Johnson." Said Robin Brown, who had black hair, brown eyes, and was dressed in a red suit.
"We have been down there looking for about 15 minutes, but we haven't found a body." Said officer Johnson, who was dressed in his uniform. He had blonde hair, and looked to be in shape. "We have found this, we think it might have been part of the guys shirt. But we aren't expecting him to be alive, even in the cold he could have dead."
Leo looked at the piece of cloth that the officer held. It looked black to him. Then it hit him. "Chris." Leo said
"What?" Paige asked confused
"Chris was wearing that shirt, when I last saw him. From what those witnesses said, that could be Chris."
"But the girls said that the person looked like they lost balance and fell, Chris would have orbed." Phoebe said.
"What if he couldn't" Leo said
"What do you mean couldn't?" Piper asked concerned.
"What if something happened, maybe it could be a side effect from what Bianca did to him." Leo said
"Wouldn't it have shown up before now?"
"It should have, but what if something happened. What is a darklighter got him?" Paige asked
"He would have orbed or called out to me. I told him if he got into trouble up there to call me. But he didn't anyway he still could have orbed, yea it would have hurt like hell, but it is better then drowning."
"We need to help him now. Leo orb to the boy and try to find him." Piper said sounding concerned With that Leo left to search Chris, while sisters went to the book to try to find a spell to help.
When Leo arrived at the bay he quickly went into the water. It didn't take him long till he needed some air. The coldness of the water was numbing him, even after only lose to a minute. He wouldn't be able to get to Chris if he was at the bottom. He went over to one of the scuba stores not far away from the Bay. He grabbed the stuff he would need and put it on. The orbed out leaving enough money on the counter to pay for the stuff he took. He got back to the river just as Paige called to him. He orbed away making sure no one saw him.
"What?" Leo asked as he arrived
"We are going to cast a spell so that you will be able to find him easier. Like of like a locator spell, but you will still need to look. We needed you here."
The girls chanted. "We all upon the powers of the past help us find the one we lost. Shine a light into the bay, only that Leo can see. Make it blue to show the way. Let Leo find Chris, who has lost his way."
With that said the girls waved Leo away.
When Leo orbed back to the bay, he couldn't see any light. He didn't care he started into the water and dove. Careful not to let anybody see him. When he was about 25 feet below the surface he saw a light. It was blue. He swam toward it as fast as he could. When he was what he hoped he wouldn't see. It was Chris, he brown hair was going everywhere, and his eyes were shut. Leo couldn't make out very much though since he was still too far away to tell if he was alive. When he got closer Leo saw that a rock had settled itself on top of Chris's right leg. Leo moved the rock, and blood came rushing out. Chris was sprawled over another boulder. His body must have hit the top of the cliff that was next to him. Leo grabbed Chris' head and slowly lifted Chris off of the rock. He couldn't orb in he water so h wrapped Chris's cut with what was left of Chris' jacket. Then lifted him the rest of the way off of the rock. He had to make sure that Chris was still in his arms since he had lost feeling in most of his body.
The girls were getting nervous, Leo had been gone for about a half and hour, that meant that Chris would have been under water for over an hour. They then hear the familiar sound of orbing and turned around to see Leo holding Chris in his arms. Chris's head was hanging down so that the front of his next was exposed.
"O, God...Leo...is he..." Piper asked feeling sorry for all the time she hated him.
"I don't know." Leo said as he placed Chris down on the couch.
Paige helped him so that Chris' head didn't get hurt. She picked his head up and put it down on a pillow.
"How cold was the water?" Paige asked as he brought her fingers to her mouth to warm them. "He's freezing."
"Freezing. I cannot feel anything." Leo said Phoebe went over to Chris she touched his hand. He was like ice. She got a vision too.
"What did you see?" asked Paige "I saw Chris on top of the bridge, stand up looking like he was about to be sick, then get dizzy, and lose balance, trying to try to get it back, then not being able to see. Hitting the water and lots of pain." Phoebe said "So much pain."
"So that is probably what happened, but is he alive?" Piper asked
"Lets' see." Lead said as he undid the wrapping job with the coat, the blood was still slowly spilling. Leo put his hands over Chris and the gold like appeared. Soon after Leo stopped. Chris started to cough, and then move. Leo looked at the cut, and saw that it was just blood from before. 'Why did the blood go?' Leo thought to himself.
Chris started to breathe harshly at first but after a few minute it came back to normal. Then he wake-up with a start.
"Whoa, there Chris, Calm down." Phoebe said
"What's going on?" Chris asked confused
"You should tell us." Paige said. "What happened to you on the bridge, like the whole police department is looking for you."
"I don't know what happened. But why am I here?" Chris asked
"We decided not to leave you out in the cold." Phoebe said
"Sure, Right." Chris said as he started to stand up. Bu then fell back on the couch from another wave of dizziness.
"What's wrong?" Paige asked
"I..."Chris started but Leo interrupted
"There shouldn't be anything wrong with you, I just healed you."
"It isn't me." Chris said
"What do you mean?" asked Piper, who had been hiding in the corner until now.
"I think it is..." Chris said just before they heard a crash from the attic.
They ran up the stairs and up to the attic. Chris orbed up there so he got there just before the girls and Leo, since it took him a minute to stop the spinning in him head. When he got there he was surprised to see who had caused the noise. There in the middle of the room with his back to the door was Wyatt.
"No one move." Chris said as quietly as he could when he heard them behind him. But it wasn't quiet enough.
"Well there's no need to be quiet. I know you are there." With that said the blonde haired man turned around and looked at Chris. "You know you shouldn't sneak up on me little brother. You never could."
With a flick of the blonde's wrist Chris went flying into the wall. Piper, Leo, Phoebe, and Paige all looked on in shock. They didn't know who it was. Paige started to move to see if Chris was alright.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." Said the blonde haired man. "You would be messing with your timeline."
Paige stopped were she was.
Chris started to get up. When he final got to his feet, he was thrown across the floor into another wall. This got Chris more angry. He got up and formed a fireball in his hand. "You touch them..." Chris said
"Don't worry, I cannot kill them, you know that. But I can kill her." Wyatt said
"Who?"
"Her." With that Wyatt raised his hand and made a fist to reveal that he hadn't come alone. A girl appeared hanging in the air. She was beaten brutally. Her long black hair covered her face so the sisters couldn't see who she was. But Chris recognized her immediately. "That's why you are in pain."
"Cat." Chris said to himself as the fireball in his hand disappeared.
"Don't move Chris, You do. I'll chop her head off or something final like that."
"Why?" Chris asked
"Well, it is obvious that you care for her since you were little, why not take advantage of that friendship."
"Why would you, you cannot do this?" Chris said angry and sad that the same time.
"So come back with us." With that said demons flocked in and started toward Chris, who raised his hands and blew one up. They stopped in their tracks. "Well, that wasn't very nice." The blonde man said. With that he tightened his grip on the girl, which made her cry out in pain for about a second.
"Hey." She said trying to fight back a cry of pain. Wyatt turned and looked at her.
"What do you want?" He asked as if he was annoyed with her.
"You shouldn't count me out just yet." She said as she moved arms, which seemed to scare him, he decided that it was time to leave, and orbed out. With his minions on his heals. The girl fell to the ground and Chris ran over to her to see if she was all right.
"Are you okay?" Chris asked
"Yea, I'll be fine in a few." She responded
Leo and the sisters walked over to them
"Are you sure your alright. Those look like some bad cuts." Leo said. "I can help."
"Don't need you to." Said the girl. She lifted her head up and they saw her face. She looked terrible, with blue eyes that looked so caring even after she was hurt this badly.
The four people that didn't know her looked on as the girls face began to change. The cuts and bruises started to disappear when they were gone she looked heavenly to them.
"By the way my name is Cat." She said raising her hand to greet Leo and the girls.
"Nice to meat you." Paige said. "My name is..."
"I know your names. Leo, Piper, Phoebe, and Paige."
"Right." Paige said
Phoebe finally snapped out of it. "Can you explain what just happened?" She asked
"I was taken here by that man and then you saw the rest." Cat said as she started standing up. She was about as tall as Chris's shoulders when she stood.
"Who was that?" Piper asked
"A bad guy as you could call it." Cat said
"He said he was your brother Chris." Leo stated.
"Yea, so." Chris said still mad about what happened.
"So, who is he exactly? Does he have a name?" Leo asked
"Yea."
"What is it?"
"Not important." Chris said to quickly
"Okay, here's the next question, what was that?" Piper asked
"What do you mean?" Chris asked
"Well, you formed a fire ball in your hand and then you blew up a demon. Then she moves her hands and blonde leaves, then she heals herself." Piper said
"I told you. I cannot tell you everything." Chris responded
"Well explain anyways."
"Well I can heal myself." Cat said. "I can heal other people too." Cat said trying to give Chris more time to think.
"Okay. That explains one thing, now three more." Piper said
"In the future blowing things up is a common gift, but most can only blow up little things. It is freezing that most people cannot do or control." Cat said as she demonstrated that she could also blow things up too. "And as for blonde, as you call him. He got very scared, because he knew I could blow him up."
"Okay, how about the fireball, Chris?" Piper asked
"Something, my brother taught me." Chris said telling them the truth some what. His brother was the reason he could use that power. When Chris got mad enough if would work, but once another emotion came to him it would go away.
"What do you mean taught you."
"When I was, well a couple of years ago. I saw my brother form a fireball in his hand, since then, I have always tried to do it, but it was usually just about this big." Chris said as he held up his hand and parted his thumb and forefinger about an inch apart.
"Well I guess you just have to get angry to make it bigger." Cat said
"I guess. Can we talk alone?" Chris asked. Cat nodded her head and they both orbed out.
"Okay who was that?" Paige asked
"Cat." Phoebe said
"No, not her, the blonde guy."
"I don't know. But I felt something strange about him." Phoebe said
"I know what you mean." Piper said "Why did he say: 'I cannot hurt them, you know that.' Why cannot he go after us."
